Hi,
i have data as follow in row 1

A1 ---> 09:00
B1 ---> 13:30
C1 ---> formula =B1-A1 with correct difference 04:30
all three column A, B and C are formatted as TIME properties hh:mm
D1 ---> 10,00 means 10,00 euro as fee per hour
E1 ---> formula =C1*D1 but i got 1,875 instead of 45,00

help me please
 


FYI: Why do Dates and Times seem to be so much trouble? faq68-5827

The take away that you need is that TIME units are DAYS. So multiply times 24 (Hrs per Day)

That would be:

=C1*24*D1

Cheers, Glenn.

Did you hear about the literalist show-jumper? He broke his nose jumping against the clock.
